Once you know what modulos are, it's pretty simple.  In the above
example, the MSB is 420/128 = 3.  Simple enough.  The modulo arithmetic
calculates the remainder.  Simply multiply 128 by the MSB and subtract
it from the original number: 420 - (3*128) = 36.

x/128         = MSB
x - (MSB*128) = LSB

To make stuff hexadecimal from decimal, I'd recommend using a
calculator that does it for you (like the advanced tab of the Windows
calculator).
